+ME_TOO. /usr/local frequently has wider permissions than reasonable for
something that can affect system startup.

I can think of one argument in favor of this -- you can modify the system
default that way, without touching /etc, so this would add local
modifications to an image which you then use for system initialization.

However, you can do the same thing by adding appropriate *.conf files to
/usr/lib/systemd/**.
